See doctor: I answered your question yesterday. Did you contact your doctor? If you can't reach doc and are having "horrible headaches," you should go to urgent care to be evaluated for a proper diagnosis and guidance. Perhaps something else is going on besides Effexor (venlafaxine) withdrawal. You need to be seen by doctor. I hope you follow up without delay. Take care.
